A few days ago, the Hornets fired Byron Scott. Scott was the NBA Coach of the Year in 2008.

Apparently, the belief was that the team stopped responding to him. So, they brought in someone else who would get the respect of the players.

This guy. Seriously. This one. That’s who the players are going to look up to.

My man looks like Jesse “The Body” Ventura, but without the body.

There was a teacher in my high school who looked like that. The students called him “Mr. Hungry.”

Will he help put some sting into the Hornets? I don’t know.

But I know one thing… He certainly ain’t the guy who put the “lean” into New Orleans.
